Therefore you should not have opened a JIRA. There is nothing that the JBoss team can do to fix this. thanks for your explaination. I closed it. At least I can update the Jboos Wiki, it might be helpful for others. anonymous wrote : Also, I did mean service.bat. I meant it too. sorry, that's my typo previously to answer jakiran.
